Icelandic pop star Björk was one of the women who publicly denounced episodes of sexual harassment by a "Danish director" in the aftermath of the Harvey Weinstein saga.
Now, inspired by the global success of #metoo hashtag, through which women are sharing on social media their personal experiences of sexual harassment and assault, Björk gave a more "detailed description" of the director's alleged harassment.

"I fully sympathise with everyone who hesitates , even for years . but i feel it is the right time especially now when it could make a change."
The musician said the filmmaker would wrap his arms around her and stroke her in front of the crew against her wishes after each take and when she finally asked him to stop the touching, two months later, "he exploded and broke a chair in front of everyone on set" and everyone was sent home.
In addition, during the whole filming in Sweden, "there were constant awkward paralysing unwanted whispered sexual offers from him with graphic descriptions" with his wife allegedly standing next to them.
In one occasion, he allegedly threatened to enter her room "in the middle of the night with a clear sexual intention , while his wife was in the room next door."
Björk was allegedly forced to escape to her friends room. Even more damning for the "Danish director" is the allegation that he "fabricated stories in the press about me being difficult by his producer."
"This matches beautifully the weinstein (sic) methods and bullying . i have never eaten a shirt . not sure that is even possible," she wrote.
After Björk's first Facebook post, Danish film director Lars von Trier, who filmed Dancer in the Darkwith the musician, refuted her allegations.
“That was not the case. But that we were definitely not friends, that’s a fact,” he told Jyllands-Posten, a local daily.
Dancer in the Darkwas shot in Sweden, where the alleged harassment occurred, according to Björk.
Despite the overwhelmingly positive critical reaction -- Björk won a best actress prize at the Cannes film festival in 2000 -- the musician didn't act in any other feature-length films.
The episode mentioned -- Björk eating a shirt -- famously featured in media accounts at the time, with the popstar accused of being "difficult."
